Arts academy holds open house at Schalick

PITTSGROVE – An open house for the Salem County Vocational-Technical School Arts Academy will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Wednesday at Schalick High School, 718 Centerton Road. The snow date is Feb. 12.

Eighth- and ninth-grade students who are interested in a pre-professional high school program in dance, theater or visual arts are invited to attend the information session with their parents or guardians. They will be able to meet educators in the program and tour the facilities.

Students enrolled in the academy spend time each day in their specific academy program, and also in their core academic studies at Schalick. Instruction is complemented by visits from guest artists who bring their professional artistic experience into the classroom and lead students in special short-term projects that coordinate with the curriculum of the main teaching staff. Performance opportunities for theater and dance students, as well as art shows for visual arts students, enhance the learning experience and allow students to build skills necessary to advance in their chosen career track.

The academy requires an audition, or portfolio review, for entrance. Students outside of Salem County also may be eligible to attend the academy through special arrangements.

Tickets are $65, which includes an open bar, appetizers, desserts and entertainment by a DJ. Checks and money orders should be made payable to “VHS Class of 98 Reunion” and mailed to: Katherine Krawczyk-Rivera, 1388 Venezia Ave, Vineland, NJ 08361.
